So these are a few specimens from my creepy doll collection. I am such a freak, I just got a tiny creepy baby off Ebay that is the size of two pennies. His arms and legs are moveable and his eyes blink! Creepy! I will post a pic of him later.

So ANYWAY...
1. Family drama: I got a letter from my grandma, saying she "really is hoping" I will come to Texas for Christmas even though I already made other plans. That is code for "I will be fucking pissed off and hold a grudge against you if you do not come!" I really can't figure out why I get grief about this kind of stuff. After all, this is the second Christmas my cousin has skipped out, but she is "the good one" so nobody gives her any trouble. Woe is me.

2. My camera is broken, I think. I'm going to get a new one with my work bonus, though. Yippee!

3.The season of CONSTANT rain is about to begin here. I must go down to the military surplus store and stock up on rain gear. You see, I am one of those crazy people who rides a bicycle 365 days a year. Yup. In the Portland winter, you have to identify fellow riders you see on the road by their bicyles, because you can't really tell what they look like all wrapped in rain gear and scarves.
I really like the rain, actually. Sometimes I will ride with no gear and just let the rain fall on me and get me soaked. Then, as we Portlanders do, I go to my local coffee shop and order a big fat cup of joe to warm up.

4. I am missing my best friend so much right now. I keep thinking the phone will ring and it will be her. When I get home from work I check the message machine expecting her to have left a message. She either sings that Bobby Brown song "Every little step I take" or it goes something like this: "Uhhhhh, so hi, um, this is Alley, right...you probably knew that. Kaaaate! Pick up the phone. Okay, so I am leaving for the coffee shop in twenty minutes. I hope you are there...(long pause)...okay bye."Click.

5. What is all of this SG site drama? I read Olivia's journal the other day and I had no clue! Seriously, does anyone know the scoop? Well, at least I know I'm not going anywhere. I dig SG.

6. Oh, the sun is shining and it is my day off work. I think I will go down to my favorite jewelry shop and buy myself something real pretty.
